Greta Thunberg, in a video posted on social media, said she and other members of the Freedom flotilla en-route to Gaza have been kidnapped by Israeli forces. This comes after the Daily Mail reported that several Israeli vessels surrounded the ship Madleen, prompting the crew to raise an alarm.
Thunberg shared a pre-recorded video appealing for international help. “My name is Greta Thunberg, and I am from Sweden,” she said in the clip. “If you see this video, we are being intercepted and kidnapped in international waters by the Israeli occupational forces, or forces that support Israel. I urge all my friends, family and comrades to put pressure on the Swedish government to release me and the others as soon as possible.”
They want the Gaza Marine Gas field. They don’t want the financial risk of the Palestinian people attacking the facilities and transportation.
Then they would have cleansed all the Palestinians into Egypt at the start.
There is nothing worse for the reputation of Israel and the West than getting these types of headlines every single day because they had to be literal cartoon villains and shoot 30 Palestinians trying to find food at an aid point.
If this ends with the ethnic cleansing of Gaza, which it might, doing it at day 600 instead of day 30 makes absolutely no sense.
It is not the negative news, but the repetition of negative news which sticks in people’s heads.
Biden pushed for the mass displacement option early on, but Egypt, Jordan and other regional actors refused, just like they have so far under Trump.
Nah this is not the hill you should be dying on. This is literally ahistorical non materialist analysis with a dose of antisemitism.
Where do you think the Israel lobby gets its funding lmao.
